Yes it does.  You don't have all of wikipedia on your mac as far as I can tell. 
I keep meeting to add this to my mac basics part 2 but forget.. this is a handy 
dandy little tool I use all the time especially this semester.

Take care all.

would for Wikipedia but what about basic usage? Some might not want to
